Hayley Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 Hi everyone! I haven't been around for a while because I just returned from a week-long trip to my boyfriend's city. We spent spring break with his family, who I was just meeting for the first time. It was lovely, and I have lots of sneezy encounters to report.My first observation was a revelation to me. I've told you all before that my boyfriend always stifles his sneezes, almost silently. Well, I guess he feels more comfortable in his own home, because while we were at his house he hardly stifled at all! His uncovered sneeze is a powerful "HaaAH-schoo!." Very sexy.Early in the week my boyfriend's younger sister, B, brought home a cold from school, and soon it had spread to everyone, myself included. It wasn't a very bad cold, so I didn't mind. It did get everyone sneezing pretty frequently, though, which lead to my second interesting observation: my boyfriend and his two siblings have almost identical sneezes! Obviously his sister's is a bit more high pitched, but they're are all basically the same powerful, two-syllable sneeze. They even have the same way of stifling silently. Has anyone noticed this amongst family members?B has a particularly nice sneeze. Like I said, it's loud and powerful, but she also has draw out build-ups where she makes the most perfect pre-sneeze face, with her mouth slightly open and her eyes half closed. She doesn't even try to hide it - she just waits like that, sometimes for seconds on end, for the sneeze to come. Classic!I also got lots of sneezes from my boyfriend himself - probably 4 or 5 per day. And, since we spent lots of time cuddling on the couch, I was in close proximity for most of them. I love being next to him when he sneezes, whether it's a powerful "Haah-SCHOO!" or an almost-silent "heh...hnngst!" because of the way his whole body tenses up and his head bobs forward. I also loves the way he turns to me, watery-eyed, and smiles and thanks me after I bless him. So cute!One final obs, of myself this time. My boyfriend lives pretty far away, so we took the train there and back. While we were on our way home, we were sitting in our seats when suddenly I was overcome with the urge to sneeze. Usually my sneeze is a fairly powerful, throaty "Heehh-TCHEWW!" but this sneeze was teasing me. My breath hitched a few times, and then I sneezed a very dainty, high-pitched "Heh...hiit-tschew!" into my elbow. My boyfriend turned to me and blessed me very sweetly.That's all I can think of right now. Hope you all enjoy reading about my sneezy week! Link to comment
Anonymouse Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I love when people put their pre-sneeze faces on full display. I'm so glad you got to see your boyfriend sneeze so much, and see a bunch of different kinds of sneezes from him! Link to comment
